The heat on the nose cone did the trick getting the screw loose that attached the cone.
Then was able to tap out the double row ball bearing with a brass punch.
After cleaning it, I think it’s in good shape considering it’s age.

Still have the outboard propshaft bearing I’d like to get out of the conical housing, (part list # 213)
but have not figured out the way to do it yet. There’s no gap for an inside puller
to grab on, and no way to tap it out from the end that I can tell.
Any clues on that one?

The aluminum nose cone is not pressed it, in has one slotted screw that holds it in place from the inside. Heating the outside of the cone may allow it to come loose easier. …… and lefty-loosy, eh.
